Dave & Buster's Halts IPO Plans

Dave & Buster's Entertainment Inc. called off an IPO that backers hoped would bring in $100 million and that had been expected to launch Friday, citing choppy markets for new offerings.

"While we received significant interest from potential investors, current market conditions are not optimal for an IPO at this time," said Steve King, Dave & Buster's chief executive, in a late Thursday release.
